The '''Rope Snake''' ({{ja|ヒモヘビ|Himo Hebi}}, ''Rope Snake'') is [[Lucas]]'s [[grab]] and [[grab aerial]].


==Overview==
'''Rope Snake''' is a character in ''[[Mother 3]]''. Duster received him from the ghosts of Osohe Castle. Rope Snake helps Duster and his friends cross pits by allowing him to latch onto candlesticks on the wall. Rope Snake is also used later to grab the getaway ship at Thunder Tower, but he does not have the strength to lift four people, so he is captured with Duster in Saturn Valley, where they turn up hung on a clothesline. After the party flies back to Tazmily Village by holding onto a cage of birds, Rope Snake fails a second time, and leaves the party. During the credits, it is shown he changed his name to Snake Rope to help live with the shame of his failure.  
Lucas can use his grab as a [[tether recovery]], similarly to [[Samus]]'s and [[Link]]'s grabs, although it has a much shorter reach than theirs. When used as a tether recovery, it is almost as long as {{SSBB|Ivysaur}}'s [[Vine Whip]]. In ''Brawl'', unlike other [[grab aerial]]s, Rope Snake has no damaging hitbox and thus cannot be used as an attack in midair. In ''Smash 4'' and ''Ultimate'', Rope Snake is longer and able to attack in midair. The Rope Snake also makes an appearance in Lucas's side [[taunt]]; he converses with the Rope Snake after he taps him on the shoulder.

The '''Rope Snake''' is [[Lucas (SSBB)|Lucas]]' [[Grab]] attack. He can also use it as a [[Tether Recovery]], similarly to Samus's and Link's grabs ([[Grapple Beam]] and [[Clawshot]], respectively), although it has a much shorter reach than these tether recoveries. It also makes an appearance as Lucas' Side Taunt; he converses with the rope snake after it taps him on the shoulder.
Rope Snake is a character in ''{{s|wikibound|Mother 3}}''. {{s|wikibound|Duster}} received him from the ghosts of {{s|wikibound|Osohe Castle}}. Rope Snake helps Duster and his friends cross pits by allowing him to latch onto candlesticks on the wall. Rope Snake is also used later to grab the getaway ship at {{s|wikibound|Thunder Tower}}, but he does not have the strength to lift four people, causing it to lose his grip. After falling, he is captured with Duster in {{s|wikibound|Saturn Valley}}, where he is strung up on a clothesline. After the party flies back to {{s|wikibound|Tazmily Village}} by holding onto a cage of birds, Rope Snake fails a second time, and leaves the party. He can be found in [[New Pork City]] late in the game as an NPC. During the credits, it is shown he changed his name to Snake Rope to help live with the shame of his failure.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*When seen in 1/4 speed, if Lucas uses the Rope Snake for tether recovery, its head will wiggle back and forth.
*When used as a tether recovery, it is only slightly shorter than Ivysaur's [[Vine Whip]].  
*In ''Brawl'', when Lucas uses the Rope Snake on a slope or ramp, his hair will flatten out.
*Lucas never obtained Rope Snake in the games.
*Lucas never personally used Rope Snake in ''Mother 3'', but as mentioned, he does hang on to Duster using Rope Snake twice in the main story events. It continues the trend of ''Mother'' characters utilizing abilities of their party members, such as [[PK Freeze]], [[PK Thunder]], and [[PK Fire]].
